What Causes Sharp Pain In Back Around The Shoulder Blade?
I ve been having a sharp pain in my back on the left side near my shoulder blade. It feels almost like when my rib slips out of place, but that s not it because I am still able to breathe without much discomfort. The pain is sharp and worse when I do take a deep breath. I was wondering if it could be my heart. You know, early symptoms of a heart attack. I am a 56 year old female with bad heart history on both of my parents side.
